Answer:

A percentage by definition means out of a hundred.

Anything out of a percent is anything out of a hundred.

In this case it’s 32 percent.

It’s just 32/100

When simplified you’d get 8/25

Stock worth $80 a share dropped in value by 15% on Tuesday, then increased by $7 the next Wednesday and, finally, increased by 1

Nutka1998 [239]

<h2>Steps</h2>

So here are a couple expressions when a value changes by percentage (p = percentage in decimal form and m = original value):

When <em>decrease</em>: (1 - p)m
When <em>increase</em>: (1 + p)m

So firstly, the $80 share dropped by 15%. Since this is a <em>decrease</em>, follow the appropriate expression:

$15\%=0.15\\\\(1-0.15)*80\\0.85*80\\68$

<em>On Tuesday, the share went from $80 to $68</em>

Next, on Wednesday the share increased by $7. With this, just add $68 and 7.

$68+7=75$

<em>On Wednesday, the share went from $68 to $75</em>

Lastly, on Thursday the share increased by 12%. Since this is an <em>increase</em>, follow the appropriate expression:

$12\%=0.12\\\\(1+0.12)*75\\1.12*75\\84$

<h2>Answer</h2>

<u>The final price of the share is $84.</u>

VERY URGENT HAVE A TEST TO TAKE

Daniel [21]

The easiest way is to try the point (-4,1), that is, x=-4, y=1,
to see which equation works.
b works.

The usual way to do it is to find the equation of the circle
standard form of a circle is (x-h)²+(y-k)²=r², (h,k) are the coordinates of the center, r is the radius.
in this case, the center is (-2,1), so (x+2)²+(y-1)²=r²
the given point (-4,1) is for you to find r: (-4+2)²+(1-1)²=r², r=2
so the equation is (x+2)²+(y-1)²=2²
expand it: x²+4x+4+y²-2y+1=4
x²+y²+4x-2y+1=0, which is answer b.
